AKG K-240 MKII

Kinda alright

Got them to play guitar as a beginner to not annoy my parents, the sound in them is different from the amp. They can't handle lots of bass, so playing metal is overwhelmingly muddy. Should have put the money for a better amp.

Excellent for mixing.

I've had these Mk IIs and a pair of K240S for many, many years. I've mixed and mastered all of my commercial work on them and never had any rejections or complaints from producers or directors. They may not be the most tasty for listening to music (although I really love their character), especially modern bass heavy music, but they are very flat and detailed, making them perfect in the studio. Some components have broken down over time such as the ear pads and foam, the cable coating has peeled and the AKG logos have fallen off. But even so, they remain wrapped around my head daily and haven't let me down yet. I'd recommend them for general mixing over the more expensive AKG models as those tend to have more of a hyped frequency response.

Great headphones!

Sound great and are pretty well built, also they are very lightweight. I would take 1 point for comfort cause it's not perfect, but for the price it's awesome.

Comfortable headphones with good sound

Great sound

Comfortable - fits well on a large head

Good equipment: two wires, two types of ear pads

Not terrible but not great either

The sound is decent enough but the design is uncomfortable. The earcups don’t fit right and my hair keeps getting caught in them when I take them off which is painful and annoying. If you’re on a tight budget these will probably do you well but if you’ve got some extra cash I’d probably recommend getting something else.

Nice pair

Great headphones for the price. Lightweight and comfortable. has spare earcups and coiled cables.

Excellent value for money

These are very comfortable, lightweight, and sound very good. Of course, they could sound better but in this price range they are the best I've tried. Very happy with the purchase.

A classic

Inexpensive easy to use the standard in most studios. No complaints.

Good sound for recording, very comfortable.

Quite ok for guitar plugins

Using it mainly for guitar recording through vst and plugins. Quite good and dont have too much to complain. Happy with my purchasing and can recommend for home studios in budget.
